Point out the wrong combination.

True negative=correctly rejected
False negative=correctly rejected
False positive=correctly identified
All of the mentioned

The correct answer is D. All of the mentioned.

A true negative is a correct rejection, meaning that the test correctly identified the person as not having the disease. A false negative is an incorrect rejection, meaning that the test incorrectly identified the person as not having the disease when they actually do have it. A false positive is a false alarm, meaning that the test incorrectly identified the person as having the disease when they actually do not have it.

In the context of the question, a true negative is a person who does not have the disease and is correctly identified as not having the disease. A false negative is a person who does have the disease but is incorrectly identified as not having the disease. A false positive is a person who does not have the disease but is incorrectly identified as having the disease.

All of these combinations are possible, and it is important to be aware of the potential for each type of error when interpreting test results.
